ready to tell the world!!!


Well it is official! We are bringing another little Murphy into the world! And I am SOO excited!!!! Baby #2 (Who I have been referring to as Rufus) should be here mid September. And baby will be exactly 2 years and a month younger than Molly! Couldn't be more perfect!

We've told all of our immediate family and some friends. Tomorrow I'm going to tell some work friends.  Not quite ready to make it facebook official...maybe in another few weeks.

It's kinda scary how easily we made a baby this time! Jonathon and I decided to start "trying" so I stopped taking my birth control in December. And a week later, we made a baby! I never expected to get pregnant this fast!

But I knew that I was pregnant! It was WAY to early to take a pregnancy test, but I started having pregnancy symptoms. I kept waking up in the middle of the night, I had really bad heartburn, and I had to go to the bathroom all the time! So I printed off a coupon and went and bought a pregnancy test (all they had was a 3 pack). And I counted out 6 days before my missed period, which was what the test said to do. And I waited until that day. It was a Thursday that I was off of work, so I woke up bright and early and took the test...it was negative! I was really sad...but I still felt like I was pregnant. So the next morning, I took another test...negative again! I started to get kinda depressed about it.

Well a few days later, we woke up to a Snowy Sunday. Most of the churches in town were closed, but we still had services. So we went to church. My tummy started growling during the service and I had just eaten, so I knew something was up. When we got home from church, I went to the bathroom and took the last test in the box....and almost immediately the test was positive!!! I was stoked! I ran to tell Jonathon but he was outside. So I told Molly. But when I told Jonathon, he was SOO Excited!

So long story short...we're pregnant again and couldn't be happier!!!

quick movie review!

I've been watching quite a few movies this week. Some have been great...and some have been not so great! Here are my thoughts:

Twilight: Movies 1-3
Good movies! Not very true to vampire characteristics (I took a Brit Lit class at Tech and we studied vampires in great detail). But for a teenage romance drama, they are pretty good!

Dinner For Schmucks
It's playing on my tv as we speak, and I've tuned out. I thought it would be funny...wrong! I really like Steve Carrell but he let me down in this movie. One of those movies where everything that could possibly go wrong goes wrong.

p.s. I am a fan of Red Box! Love it!

o the memories!

So we finally put up the Christmas decor today which led us to a little bit of spring cleaning. I came upon my wedding dress and of course I had to put it on and prance around the house! It brought back so many amazing memories of one of the best days of my life!!!

Ready to make some new amazing memories in 2011!

I have 2 goals for 2011:

1. fit into my favorite jeans from freshman year in college. They are sitting at the top of my closet and yes one day my booty will fit into them again! Today is day 1of my couch to 5K program. And March 19 I'm doing a 5K in Longview, TX with Jonathon, his sister, and her husband. Pretty excited!

2. Bring another little Murphy into the world! Been working on that the past few weeks!  : )

Ready for whatever this year may bring!

dangerous thinking!

I think I have the fever...baby fever that is!

It seems like everybody I know is working on a little one! I've always wanted my kids to be close in age...like 2 years apart. And this week...exactly 2 years ago is when we "made" Molly.

So we're not "trying" at the moment...but I don't think it will be too much longer! :)
